Experiences by AMADEUS Rhine Wine Dine.Indd Exclusive Experiences by Amadeus AN INTRODUCTION TO THE WINES ALONG THE RHINE AND MOSELLE RIVERS A Product of Dr. W. Lüftner Reisen GmbH 1 “Beneath me flows the Rhine, and, like the stream of Time, it flows amid the ruinsHENRY WADSWORTH of the LONGFELLOW Past." 2 Dear Wine Enthusiasts and Food Lovers, We are excited to introduce you to Exclusive Experiences by AMADEUS; a masterfully created portfolio of immersive and inspiring adventures. This experience has been curated for the traveler who not only enjoys wine and food, but wants to elevate their knowledge to the next level and explore the specific flavors of a region. This Rhine River cruise takes you into the heart of the Alsace and Germany’s wine regions and invites you to experience one of our legacy itineraries. As a native of western Europe, I find it fascinating to watch well-traveled wine lovers discover the grapes of the Pfalz, Rhinegau and Moselle. I feel a strong sense of pride as old misconceptions are replaced by the thrill of new discoveries, for example, when a wine lover tastes a dry, high-quality Riesling for the first time. As enthusiasts travel along the soothing waters of the Rhine, past medieval castles speckled amid the stunning, hilly terrain, curiosity turns to amazement as steep vineyards carved into towering slopes come into view. Explore historical villages lined with cobblestone streets and stunning architecture during your travel from Basel to the Rhine Gorge where Lorelei the siren and her enchanting legend awaits your passage. Balance your thirst for history and wine with carefully selected tours and excursions created to immerse you in the region’s deeply-rooted culture. Enjoy this program during a 7-night journey with AMADEUS as we cruise on the Rhine and Moselle Rivers from Switzerland, through France and Germany, to the Netherlands. Your five-star AMADEUS river ship showcases our 40-year tradition of innovation and excellence with a focus on modern elegance and luxurious comfort. From the glass-protected River Terrace, to our signature drop-down panorama window fronts in most cabins, it’s all about your onboard experience and ultimate comfort as we introduce you to our European heritage and hospitality. We look forward to welcoming you onboard in the near future! Marcus Leskovar, Executive Vice President AMADEUS River Cruises 3 An Introduction to the Wines Along the Rhine and the Moselle Rivers 8 DAYS BASEL— AMSTERDAM Embark on a journey where every twist and turn brings new perspectives, inspires curiosity, and sparks amazement.

Realize what peace sounds like as the river flows beneath you; breathe in the earthy scent of Alpine forests surrounding you. Let your palate be your guide from one steep-sloped vineyard to another; marvel as you drink in the flavors of a land that embraces a robust wine region and an appreciation for culinary excellence. Immerse yourself in a part of the world that has offered centuries of masterpieces in art, architecture, culture, food and wine.

Subsequent forecasts also indicated a high risk of flooding for the Meuse River basin, affecting Belgium. The magnitude of the floods forecasted for the Rhine River basin increased significantly in this period. The first EFAS notifications were sent to the relevant national authorities starting on 10 July and, with the continuously updated forecasts, more than 25 notifications were sent for specific regions of the Rhine and Meuse River basins in the following days until 14 July.

The company headquarters in Koblenz is the home of this tradition of excellence dating back more than two centuries, located in the heart of the Germany’s geographically unique and culturally rich Middle Rhine and Moselle wine regions. The superior Riesling wines of the Deinhard brand beguile the world's most sophisti - cated palates and enjoy a superb worldwide reputation as “Wines That Reign”. The lion insignia in Deinhard brand history The ‘King of the Animals’ has had a special significance in the Deinhard family heritage, as founder Johann Friedrich Deinhard was born in 1772 in the family-run tavern ‘The Lion’. And the signet has been part of the brand history as well since 1876, symbolising the Deinhard winery and wines. The wines sold by Johann Friedrich when he first opened his wine shop in the city of Koblenz in 1794 were from the family’s vineyards in the Moselle region. Trademarked in 1876, the design of The Deinhard Lion has evolved over time, adorning the labels of Deinhard wares as a symbol of strength and the noble origins of the brand. 2 The modern Lion The Deinhard wine assortment is sporting a refreshing, modern look in slim, lightweight glass bottles with a convenient screwcap.
